Why Girls Don't Marry.

Boston Herald.
A prominent woman physician OF
Boston has freely expressed her convic-
ton that the great superiority in cul-
ture OF so many OF the young girls OF
to-day over that of the average men
who 90 early into business exerts one
very bad effect, namely, that these
Young girls do not want to marry
such men. There is no doubt n great
ieal of truth in the statement. In
iact. in other departments it has al
WAYS been noticed that one OF the
standing i'll effects OF the culture,
say, OF flowers, has been to make It's
votary prefer a tea rose to a head OF
:abbage; or, of music, to prefer har-
monious orchestra TO q discordant
street band; or, of religion, to prefer
piety to profanity. Now, there is no
reason why the rule should not work
,aually in the case OF marriage. The
maxim that "any husband is better
han no husband had once great
leal OF truth in it. for the condition OF
be unmarried women was in bygone
laws a forlorn one. She could no
more help growing sour than milk in &

PROSECUTING Under Difficulties.
E5OD1 the Chic00o Tribune

The Mormon elders are having considerable
trouble in proseyting in Alabama. Shotguns
and bloodhounds are the principal drawbacks to
the work of the church. They frequently make
converts, but great trouble is experienced in
taking the fruit of their labors with them.
When ore of the elders with a convert under
each arm is running through the underbrush
toward the nearest railroad station to have half
a dozen boodhoundS suddenly come tearing
along after him on the run makes it very dis.
couraging work. The native Alabama blood
hound with its mouth open is almost enough to
dishearten missionary working for the true
religion to say nothing of a laborer for re-
ligion which is little shaky on its pins, like the
Mormon variety.
When an old, bald-headed Mormon missionary
has worked two hours to bag nice mess of
Alabama converts, 1t is calculated to discourage
him to go across the county line only about four
feet in advance of bloodhound.
One night last week two of tho most jealous
workers the church has in Alabama were tarred
and feathered. Before they fully recovered from
the depressing effects of this they were chased
up n tree by the bloodhounds and forced to
stay there all night. AS they sat there on a
limb of a tree, with the damp, Gulf night wind
blowing through their feathers, one of them
said; Brother Mower, the glorious cause of
the Latter Day Saints in Alabama appears to be
languishing." Somewhat, Brother Masters "
replied the other. IF had rock to heave at
that Internal bloodhound with the red eyes that
is trying to gnaw the tree down, the outlook
would improve"
While The dogs that had been on during the
night were retiring and before the day dogs
took their positions the two elders had time to
slide down the tree hastily read a notice pinned
TO the trunk informing them that they would be
shot if found in the county after twenty-four
hours, and then skin up the next tree lust as the
other set of dogs came up on the run. They
managed to make one tree a day for about a
week, when the dogs tired out and gave them
chance to depart for new field OF labor
The time has arrived when a man who can
run under 2:1219, can name his own salary at
the headquarters of the Mormon church in Ala
hama

A Word About the Streets.

A gentleman who recently returned from
Washington expressed himself as delighted
with that city. It's smooth streets, magnif-
icent shade trees and beautiful residences
make charming picture which he will be
a long while in forgetting. He, however,
expressed the opinion that SO far as hand
some streets are concerned this city could,
at a moderate cost, be made to equal
Washington.
In Washington tie principal avenues are
very wide, and their whole width is needed
because of the large amount of driving
upon them, but in this city wide drive
ways are not needed upon any of the streets
except those given up almost wholly to
commerce.
The gentlemen in question has been think
ing over our street paving problem since
his return, and is satisfied that
the suggestion of the MORNING
NEWS, viz: That a roadway about twenty
feet wide in each of our wide streets should be
daved, and that the remainder of the street
either on the sides or in the centre, should
be properly graded and planted in grass, is
an excellent one, and ought tc be adopted
at once.
If the suggestion is adopted the work
ought to be done in a systematic manner
and under the direction of a competent
though not expensive engineer. In connec
ton with street paving the work of putting
down sewers for house drainage purposes
and of keeping the city clean might be car
ried on. To attend to all of these things
would occupy the time of an engineer pretty
fully.
If these suggested improvements were
made Savannah's attractions would be
greatly increased. Her population would
grow more rapidly and her wealthy citi
zens would not be so anxious to seek North
ern summer resorts as soon as the cotton
season is over. The Council will earn the
good will of the entire city by giving these
suggestions, with respect to street paving
and sewerage, early and careful considera-
ton.

Monnnolies Favored.

The Pennsylvania Railroad Company j:
about to get into trouble on account of it,
alleged failure TO comply with the STATE
law preventing discrimination against ship
pers. One oil refining company of Phila
delphia is reported 10 be about TO bring a
suit against the company for 100000 for
damages, the complaint being that advanta.
ges were given to other oil shippers in the
shape of rebates
If this suit should be decided against the
company no doubt others by different
parties would be brought, and the company
would find itself in an exceedingly unpleas-
ant position. The law prohibiting dis
elimination was intended to meet an evil
that was reaching vast proportions viz. the
monopoly evil. The individuals and com
panies favored by the transportation lines
were getting control of the business in
which they were engaged, and were threat
ening to prevent competition. The people
saw the danger TO which they were exposed
and went to the Legislature for protec-
ton The existing law was enacted, but it
seems that it has not accomplished the OBJ
ject for which it was intended.
1t is stated that the President of the Penn
sylvania company is in favor of aoolishing
all rebates, and living up to the law strictly,
but that there are others in the company
who want TO continue the rebates. 1t is
possible that those who favor the rebates
are interested in other companies which
profit by them.
One business man cannot compete with
another who pays only about half the regu-
lar transportation rates. If railroads, there
fore, are disposed to make determinations
they can ruin many industrial interests
while building up others. That they ought
not to be permitted to do anything of the kind
is too apparent to need the support of an
argument Discrimination does not benefit
consumers. 1t only benefits the producer
who has the advantage of it, Eventually
the favored shippers must get all the bust
ness, and when they have it in their own
hands they are certain to demand the prices
which monopolies only are able to COM
mand 1t is understood that the Standard
Oil Company is the monopoly that has been
especially favored by the Pennsylvania Rail
road Company.

The Paper City.

The MORNING NEWS has inquiries con-
corning the Tallapoosa Land and Mining
Company, from parties who invested in it,
and who are alarmed at statements which
are being printed with regard to it.
1t is always safe for those who invest in
such schemes to do SO with the same idea
with which they purchase lottery ticket,
namely, that they may draw a prize, but
that the chances are they won't. A flaming
advertisement or even a very respectable
list of officers is not always guarantee that
the scheme is one in which money
can be invested with GER
tainty that it is all that it purports to be,
especially if the headquarters of its pro-
iectors is so located that it is not an easy
matter for those invited to invest in it to
find out the truth about it and those eff
gagged in promoting it.
As rule men who have a good thing
keep it. 1t is hardly probable, however,
that those whose names are connected with
the ''Tallapoosan scheme would be parties
to wrong, and it is due to them that they
be regarded as honest and having honest
purposes until thorough Investigation by
those who have put their money in Improves
it to be otherwise.

George and McGlynr.

Very little about Henry George and DIR.
McGlynn finds its way into the public
prints nowadays They and their doings
they were Just prior to the November cleo
TONS 1t is doubtful if they ever again oc-
cupy as large a share of public attention as
they once did.
1t is now evident that the Labor party
doesn't count for as much as it was thought
it would, and politicians i'll their political
calculations do not regard it as very great
factor in the Presidential problem.
Henry George says that there is a chance
that the Labor party will not have Presi-
Dental candidate, because of the cost of
conducting a political campaign If the
leaders are very urgent, however, an indie
pendent ticket may be placed in the field.
1t is plain that Henry George doesn't
want to spend any money on the Labor
party, and that his confidence in its success
is not as strong as it was. 1t is probable
that he will drop politics for the present.
There is a little sympathy cropping out
here and there for DIR. McGlynn. He is
stranded, as it were, and is not certain about
the course to pursue. The enthusiasm over
the Anti-Poverty Society is dying out, and
the George movement is virtually dead. 1t
is believed that the doctor wants to get
back into the Roman Catholic Church. He
would be happier there than anywhere else.
1t is noticed that lately he has been very
careful not to say anything that was out of
harmony with the teachings of the church,
and he has almost wholly dropped politics
and turned his attention to religious mat
ters 1t is probable that he realizes he made
a great mistake and would now like to cor

Sex and Bravery.
From The Boston Transcript.

IIOHS GeC DOotOU IFUHoCFtUt
The disaster to the steamer Scholten in the
English Channel is said to have been made more
dreadful by the wild shrieks of the women. No
doubt the report is accurate. The shriekS of
sions of peril and disaster where they are pres
ent in considerable numbers. And yet there is
an impression gained upon three or four occa-
sionS of public disaster, that rather the most
strenuous demonstrations of terror at such times
are made by men, and this impression is CON
firmed by the observations of gentleman who
has been the master of steamer, and who, on
several occasions, has been present during
panicS on board vessels who says that
on all those occasions the women were
easily quieted if some coo-headed
man would talk to them. IF the men could be
kept cool, ,, this gentleman says, ''the women
could be. The worst time ever had on such an
occasion was with clergyman from Maine.
who, during panic on the steamer once when
we had struck another boat, but sustained
scarcely any damage, rushed about shouting:
The wrath of the Lord is upon u.s. OF course,
he scared the rest of the people, including the
women, into frenzy. / got him one side and
cowed him into quetness, but am afraid that
/ had to use little profanity to do il. When
got him out of the way it was easy enough to
calm the rest of the passengers. On another
occasion of panic, when the passengers were
buckling on life-preservers, heard cries of dis
tress from woman, l went to her and found
that her trouble rose from the difficulty she had
in fastening life preserver on her male escort.
She had got it around him but did not know how
10 taSten IL TO MS Dack, ana was screaming for
fear he might drown in consequence. She
begged me to show her how to fasten it. | said:
I will and took the life-preserver from around
the mans body and buckled it around hers -
We recall a certain crazy theatrical panic where
there no difficulty in persuading all the
ladies in the vicinity to keep their seats. Some
male acquaintance ON the same occasion dis
tinguished themselves by jumping clear over
the heads of the orchestra upon the stage and
making frenzied exit. We would not infer
from these experiences that women are neces-
sarily drawer than men, Their tendency, on the
contrary is to depend upon men in such emer-
gency. But when the male coward bellows and
runs the thoroughly frightened woman gener-
ally faintS or trembles and means.
